I have long been impressed with the allergy guide at Swiss Chalet
so I decided to find out how other restaurants owned by the same
company compared. Swiss Chalet is owned by Cara Operations
Limited, a Canadian company also owns Restaurant chains Harvey’s,
Kelsey’s Milestones and Montana’s Cookhouse. Cara decided to
discontinue using peanut free ice creams, and have gained mixed
reviews from people with allergies.

Many of the symptoms caused by allergies are also similar to food
poisoning. This is especially true of stomach upset, diarrhea,
and unpleasant side-effects along those lines (see gluten allergy
symptoms for some specific examples).

With the possibility of having identical symptoms, how do you
know if you really have allergies, or if you are dealing with
food poisoning?
